He examines traditional Aboriginal life and cites observations by early settlers, explorers and anthropologists. He also analyses a wide range of reports from various governments, health professionals, the media and from Aboriginal women and men.The issue is such a culturally sensitive one and to write about it is highly controversial, but Louis Nowra strongly believes that the issue is so important that it must be openly addressed and dealt with immediately.
